A gem among the ivory

Music EN ↓ 4 afleveringen

This year marked 47 years at TCU for Tamás Ungár, a professor of music who teaches students about the keys of life and piano. His presence and passion as performer and educator extend well beyond the Fort Worth campus. This century alone, he performed well over 70 concerts all over the world. He teaches, he travels and he still helms an international music festival he founded. Until his students stop learning from him and he stops learning from his students, Ungár said, he’ll keep teaching.

I took a lesson with the professor himself (BONUS EPISODE) 22.01.2026 11:25
